The Ultimate List for Car-Loving Manitoban Kids

When I was a kid, I loved the old cars at Tinkertown. There was always a long wait, but for a five-year-old, getting to “drive” for the first time was incredible! I remember concentrating very hard to follow the road, not realizing that the car was on tracks. Passing the little pond with legs sticking to the hot seats was an experience shared by many Manitoban kids throughout many different generations.
